REG`T, part of 10th CDN INF BDE and 4th CDN ARM`D DIV,
takes this opportunity to salute the Mayor and Citizens of
Muldegem for their courageous support and warm
reception during Liberation in September 1944. The SAR`s
especially want to express their thanks and appreciation
for the continuous care, respect and remembrance of

creates a warm bond between our two peoples. Therefore
the SAR`s give heartfelt thanks to each and every one.
